Seems like it’s not directly any sort of attack ON Mar-a-lago, but whatever they were being chased or was near enough?
[ETA] On re-read, it looks like they were specifically trying to break into Mar-a-lago?
Whatever the facts are, the administration will use this as evidence of a left-wing conspiracy against the poor, beleaguered , but brave President…

Well, the shots fired were by the cops, so that’s not really the same in my book. And an SUV running the security points could have just been been drunk Secret Service agents.
Wake me when something interesting happens, like a mob with pitch forks and torches.

So as not to breach BB rules/guidelines, maybe you should just add me to the Disappointed List.

Are these those crisis actors I keep hearing about?
SAG or Equity? I hope they’re not scabs.

I don’t like joking about crisis actors… just gives more fuel to the nutters. YMMV.

Based on what’s being said about it now, it looks like the opposite to me. If the chase started several miles away, with the cops having been called about the women involved in an incident with another car (sounds like drunken vandalism), and they got chased from there, that sounds like they got (accidentally) chased into Mar-a-Lago?
Like the incident where some guys got chased into a military base - the cops were after them, so when they saw checkpoints in front of them, they just plowed through without any awareness of where they were going, besides “away from the cops.”
Evergreen statement.

I guess they’re going deploy the first land mines outside Mar-a-Lago.

Thelma and Louise can’t read a map. This is a terrible indictment of the public school system.

Why is the President using Mar-A-Lago when it is a Security Nightmare?
Because he’s a child, because he’s a bad golfer, because it enriches him, or all three?

Ah… okay. So this was not some threat aimed at Mar-a-lago, just adjacent to it…

Okay, so it seems a couple of shots were fired by the police towards some unknowns in a SUV who took off in the direction of Mar-a-Largo.
Is this a significant event, or does it just reflect the ambient lead in the air in the US?
